Premium 100% Acrylic Sealer Undercoat

DESCRIPTION

Brinlay Acrylic Sealer Undercoat is a flat finish, 100%
Acrylic paint, which seals and undercoats
plasterboard, masonry and interior timber in one coat. It
is formulated to give excellent grain filling, and a hard
finish for easy sanding. Short drying and re-coating time,
this undercoat may be re-coated with solvent or water based
paints. It is suitable for use as an undercoat on surfaces
previously finished with enamel, provided all gloss is removed
by thorough sanding.

SUITABLE PAINTING SURFACES

All
exterior/interior surfaces where an undercoat is required
for adhesion, sandability and coverage.

GENERAL DATA

Gloss
Selection Guide
Flat.

Colour: White.

Application: Stir well with a broad paddle.
Brush, roller or spray. Provide adequate ventilation. Temperature
should be above 10ºC. Early exposure to steam, overnight
dew, rain or hosing may result in damage or removal of the
coating.

per litre. On rough or highly absorbent surfaces this figure
may be reduced.

Thinning: Up to 100 ml of clean water per
litre for spraying or application to very porous surfaces.

Drying: Touch dry in 30 minutes. Recoat
2 hours on a day of 25ºC and 50% relative humidity,
but will be longer in adverse conditions.

Clean Up: Water and detergent. Dried spots
can be removed using General Purpose Thinners.

SURFACE PREPARATION

Previously Painted Surfaces:

Ensure all surfaces are cleaned of dirt, dust, powder, grease,
oil, smoke stains, cooking residues, polishes and materials
detrimental to the finish and adhesion of the new paints
by washing with water and detergent or sugar soap (as appropriate),
rinse clean any residues.

Sterilise mould or moss with bleach or Brinlay Fungicidal
Wash.

Fill surface holes with an appropriate filler
and sand to match existing surface. Sand all gloss and
semi-gloss
paints to a flat look. Remove flaked, cracked, peeling and poorly
adhered unsound paints which should be tested as
follows:

Test surface at random by cutting a small cross (X) through
the existing paints. Apply and press down firmly
a piece of sticky tape over the cut. Hold the end of the tape and
rip off. If the paint is removed, check other areas.
Paints consistently failing test or, if any doubt to their adhesion,
should be completely removed.

Powdering paints or kalsomine surfaces should be washed down
with sugar soap and have one coat of Brinlay Binder & Conditioner
applied before applying the undercoat.

Previously painted surfaces: Remove all loose and flaking
paint by stripper, flame or hot air gun or mechanical means.
Sand the area well, feathering off edges of remaining paints.
Apply Brinlay Wood Primer.

New Timber: Suitable for all seasoned timber which is free
from dirt, wax, mildew etc. Sand lightly before application
and between additional coats. Do not leave for extended periods
prior to applying finishing coats.
